The pressure of seawater is 85 pounds per square foot at a depth offeet below the surface of the water.

The pressure of seawater is pounds per square foot at a depth of 85 feet below the surface of the water.

Step-by-step explanation:

The relationship between the pressure, p of sea water in certain deep parts of oceans is and the distance, d below the surface is given by the following equation P= p = 12 + 4/9d

Where

p is in pounds per square foot.

d is in feet

1) The pressure of seawater is 85 pounds per square foot at a depth

85 = 12 + 4/9d

4.9d/9 = 85 - 12 = 73

Cross multiplying, it becomes

4.9d = 73 × 9 = 657

d = 657/4.9

d = 134.1 feet

2) At a depth of 85 feet below the surface of the water, the pressure of seawater is

p = 12 + 4/9 × 85 = 12 + 4/765

p = 12 pounds per square foot.

hello i am doing good for you that it's summer in your country or state ; )

btw in my country we just have sun and rain as (because i live in the caribbean lol)

also, thx a lot for the points : )

i believe a. 12x≥120 is the answer
